Interests
My main research interest is in databases. I am a member of the Oxford database group. Current research projects:
- Factorised databases: FDB
- Probabilistic databases: SPROUT (query evaluation techniques), MayBMS (representation models, query languages), ENFrame (probabilistic programming), Pigora (probabilistic data integration)
- Datalog engines: With folks@LogicBlox on their meta-engine, with Oxford colleagues on RDFox.
Past projects to which I contributed as student/co-investigator/principal investigator:
- DIQOPT: Distributed Query Optimisation
- G-Store: A Storage Manager for Graph Data
- SKAR-DB: Managing Square-Kilometer-Array Data
- SPEX: Streamed and Progressive Evaluation of XPath
- Agora: Living with XML and Relational Data
Research support: Amazon; Cornell; Google; EPSRC (DBOnto, PROQAW, ADEPT); ERC Consolidator Grant (FADAMS); EU FP7 (FOX, HiperDNO); Fondation Wiener Anspach; LogicBlox; Oxford (Astor Travel Fund, Lockey Fund)
New PhD and postdoc positions available in my group funded by a 5-year ERC consolidator grant! Please contact me if interested.
